Italian sports daily La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Joachim Low, Germany’s coach, has a termination clause in his contract that could see him fired if Germany fails to
impress at the World Cup. Low, 54, has led the German national team to three major semifinals since succeeding Jurgen Klinsmann after the 2006 World Cup. Germany, the seeded team in
the USA’s Group G, is one of the favorites to win the competition.
